While this guild has been around for a while, this function hasn't. Up until more people are friends with the guild mule, I'll be using guild announcements to send these out.
The Guild Newsletter was started in March 2013.

March 2013 Newsletter
Here is some awesome info for the month of March~
First up: birthdays in March! Currently, none listed!
Secondly, a new, very important feature: Member of the Month! Member of the Month celebrates members that basically are super awesome in various ways.
Because this is the first month, to celebrate, we're having two members!
First up is Gypsy_KT!
Gypsy has been in the guild for a long time now, and has always managed to be pleasant. Furthermore, she even helped run the Guild Christmas Thread when our lovely moderator, Minty Andee, was out of commission. She's such a valued member of the community that her ribbons, a signature item, are in the guild treasure chest.
Next up is Unno Rokuro!
Unno has also been in the guild for a long time now, and is practically the style guru of the guild. As if that didn't make him fabulous enough, along with Gypsy, he helped with the Guild Christmas Thread when our lovely moderator, Minty Andee, was out of commission, and, in fact, has even donated some expensive items to other events! He's so awesome that his abs are part of the guild treasure chest!

April 2013 Newsletter
Here is some splendid info for the month of April~
First up: birthdays in April! Dandelionblood has a birthday on the twenty-first and I Kaede I celebrates another revolution around the sun on the twenty-seventh. Go wish them happy birthday, and feel free to submit your birthday if you haven't already.
Secondly: Member of the Month! Member of the Month celebrates members that basically are super awesome in various ways.
Froggie Doll is this month's member of the month, and considering how hard she worked last event, can you really blame us? Froggie Doll managed to create art for pretty much everyone in the Easter thread and consistently managed conversation. Hell, considering how much of an impact she made, she definitely impressed both of Minty and myself, making her an A+ candidate. We look forward to seeing what Froggie Doll is going to dish out for her continued membership here.
Hey, did you know that we accepted some crew applications? Well, we did! Look forward to seeing which of you lucky applicants made the cut and what changes you can see for upcoming events!
Finally, there are some rumors that mischief is going to be sprung (and perhaps not necessarily mischief that has had time/space allotted for it)... so be sure to start posting if you haven't already! (It might just come in handy...) I might suggest perusing our very own version of the chatterbox or perhaps you might be feeling querious (that's a joke, get it? Query + Curious = Querious. I'm hilarious. Not to be confused with "querulous".), if you are feeling a strike of curiousity, how about you go and check out the Velvet Noir anon's Q&A thread!
Finally, if you're of the creative sort and/or want some extra gold, check out the contest for the guild mule! She's in desperate need of some TLC, so how about you give her a new outfit? Check here, and, hey, if you win, just think: the avatar you made will be used to deck out the guild Captain.
For all those of you who are new, or even an oldbie, feel free to check out the rest of the guild! You might find threads you didn't know existed, or maybe even a new idea or two. (Or you may just find proof that the current crew are dorks. Whoops.)
Not to mention, May the Fourth be with you and Revenge of the Sixth. [/lame puns]
Our Member of the Month for May 2013 is Shado_Archer!
Shado came to us a few events ago, and nestled into our wing rather quickly! I'd like to think he's found a home here, because he's certainly done a lot of good! He's been keeping up the Naked Items thread in the guild faithfully for a year now. He's kind of really awesome, so go say hi and congratulate him!
Check out the threads that have sprung up in the Fan Service subforum! Lots of Q & A's running, now from The Sweet Freak, Temptress, Bittersweet (heh, sorry about that!), and Velvet Noir!
Secondly, the event Vesraen was running is coming to a stop pretty soon! (Thank the gods, right?) It seems that the 'maiden' might be able to survive the dastardly deed done to her!

June 2013 Newsletter
Here is some informative information for the month of June~
First up: birthdays in June! MiniChoc has a birthday on the twentieth. Go wish MiniChoc a happy birthday, and feel free to submit your birthday if you haven't already!
Secondly: Member of the Month! Member of the Month celebrates members that basically are super awesome in various ways.
The Temptress Anon is this month's member of the month because we are a kink guild, and how the hell could we not? In other news, she's kind of awesome (seriously, though, do you not SEE what she writes?). Though she's currently servicing serving her country (oh my god that is the most tasteless joke why do people let me do things I am sorry), she is still the delight, as always~!
Let's check out what's going on the guild? What? I hear fanfare, that can only mean---! /gasp!/ Hey, check out what is going on over here! O: [/le gasp!]
For all those of you who are new, or even an oldbie, feel free to check out the rest of the guild! You might find threads you didn't know existed, or maybe even a new idea or two. (Or you may just find proof that the current crew are dorks. Whoops.)

July and August Newsletter:
Here is some inspiring info for the months of July and August~
You may have thought I'd forgotten, but I didn't! I just... didn't know what to write, so here's a super awesome double-feature!
First up, we had some birthdays in July: Hey_There_Hun (Third), Hetalia Fangirly (Ninth), Shado_Archer (Twenty-Second), and Dragostae (Thirty-first).
The only birthday in August is Panda_Pandora19 on the twenty-second, so you still have a while to go!
Make sure you add your birthday if you haven't already!
Secondly: Member of the Month! Member of the Month celebrates members that basically are super freakin' awesome.
The Rose Prince Anon and Anonymous Black Lace are our members of the month? Why? Why the heck not? Why haven't we done it sooner? Why the heck am I asking myself these questions? Okay seriously this is why Minty needs to proof read.
But, seriously, I decided to nominate these two because they're great and we wouldn't be here without them, so, whatever.
I think that's all! Feel free to visit the threads yourselves, you awesome, lovely people, you!

October Newsletter:
Hello you lovely people! know the drill by now, so let's get onto the good stuff!
We have a birthday coming up!
Mister Monster Guy is making another rotation around the sun on the twenty-seventh. Let's rally up and send some best wishes to the birthday hedgehog!
Make sure you add your birthday if you haven't already! It's rather difficult to wish you happy birthday if we don't know when!
Secondly: Member of the Month! Member of the Month celebrates members that do some awesome stuff and deserve recognition for it.
HaNdSoMe_RaBiEs started a thread back in September just to be kind and help out without any prompting, and that's kind of incredibly awesome. The mods decided to elect him as Member of the Month because of the fact that this is an incredible thing, and so, without further ado, let me present to you the thread. <3
I just want to note that I feel that this really aligns with what I feel is the spirit of the guild, and that I have the most heartfelt gratitude and warm fuzzies over stuff like this. ;3;
Secondly, since it is October, events are bound to come around, so you may want to keep your eye out for some Halloween spookiness~! biggrin

November Newsletter:
Hello you lovely people! know the drill by now, so let's get onto the good stuff! Like the fact that "November Newsletter" has alliteration and that is groovy.
This birthday month has got some groove going on.
The first marked another revolution for The Midnight Mistress! The tenth will harken the coming of another year for Blood_Drenched_Okami! The nineteenth has double the sexy since we celebrate it with both Unno Rokuro and SkylexBattosai~!
Make sure you add your birthday if you haven't already! It's rather difficult to wish you happy birthday if we don't know when!
Secondly: Member of the Month! Member of the Month celebrates members that do some awesome stuff and deserve recognition for it.
Rose9212 was the first non-Anon account to guess the identity of the murderer in our Halloween event! 8D I think that's just groovy, and it really means that you have to be keeping an eye on events in order to do so. So we should all give a round of applause for Rose9212! :333

December 2013 Newsletter
Pffffft. What do you guys mean "it's the middle of the month" and you "want your freaking newsletter already"? Pffffffft. Some people. It's finals week. You should be glad I have not managed to rip the guild apart with my bare hands by this point. (No but seriously guys I am sorry I am the worst crew member ever. ;A; )
Checking out the calendar, we have the following dates for celebration! For those that have had birthdays that we have missed because Ves is the worst ever, I hope you guys had great birthdays; you deserve all the best! ;o;
Now, for our Member of the Month, our very own lovely crew, Minty Andee!
She's going to murder me. Flip out. Screech in true Ves-style. And when she does, I would like my last will and testament to state that she has to do all the screeching that I would have done in the case that she does, in fact, succeed in murdering me. Which will probably make her sexytimes awkward, and for that, I apologize.
No, but seriously? Minty gets to be freaking Member of the Month because I declare it so. Minty is the reason that the guild is still around and kicking (we had some rough starts at the beginning and I had way too many responsibilities, plus what she managed now that our namesake anons have decided to become less of a presence), her thread hosting and maintenance is kick-a**, and she's one of my closest friends. Not that that last bit is important for this particular feat. What I'm trying to say here, in my sleep-deprived state, is that Minty deserved to get nominated some time, and I am gonna be the a*****e that does it.
Because... BECAUSE YOU ALL KNOW WHY.
ON A TOTALLY DIFFERENT SUBJECT: If you want some awesome holiday tekteks made for you, you may wanna post your enviro in thisthread. cB Seriously, I have gotten some rad tekteks in there, and I think it's freaking fantastic.
In other news, our chatterbox thread has managed to get over two thousand posts! It's actually approaching three thousand at the time of this post, which I think is hella impressive! :O

January Newsletter:
Yo guys! Did you guys know it's an entirely new year! >:D As a benefit, that means it's time for another newsletter!
Now, for our Member of the Month, MageQueenHoshi !
Look at how fabulous that avatar is, mannnn. Anyway. Because I absolutely adore how Minty put it, I am just going to quote her response to whom she picked, with minor, non-essential edits:
"She was super helpful with the thread this year And she helped a lot with coordinating between the two guilds for the Halloween thread. Plus she's super keen, ya' know?"
Honestly though MageQueenHoshi did really awesomely, and we thought you all deserved to know it!
(Also Minty may kill me for quoting her. So. SAVE ME MY MEMBER OF THE MONTH. SAVE MEEEE. )
I want to point you to Minty's Retirement thread. In case you weren't aware, Minty's retiring from being a thread host. I officially think you guys need to go and kiss her face. Or hand. Whatever.
Also you guys should totally quote me in the chatter thread and tell me your New Year's Resolution!

February Newsletter:
Hey guys! I'm actually trying a new thing! I'm going to post the newsletter around the fifteenth of each month because I've noticed some... issues and such with the way timing works, so this month should be the last time everyone gets screwed over. (Sorry.)
We havveeee...
February
Twenty Second: The Rose Prince
First: Azurii-p Sixth: Whimsical Fantasy Seventh:Lynx Saint Keiya Twelfth: MageQueenHoshi Fifteenth: Zekil Blakhardt Sixteenth: sweetdaydreamer Twenty-fourth: Countess Carmilla
And normally here would be where I'd list the March birthdays up to the fifteenth, but...
... ... ... okay guys, I'm gonna let you in on a little secret. My birthday is the fourth. (Okay seriously how many of you actually read this. HUH.) ((Now watch like twenty of you are gonna be all "I READ IT".))
AND NOW, the part you are all waiting for!
The Member of the Month! biggrin!
Caedere! You may know Cae from previous events, or from the fact that she is like family to all of us, but particularly Lace and Prince. :B Cae is always around during events to help out, and also makes sure to give girls a good scream! biggrin
She's an awesome roleplayer and a dear friend of mine; I don't know what I'd do without her!
And, besides, what says February like a heart! And Cae surely has a number of those in the basement...
Now, for the threads we wanna plug...
You've probably heard about Minty's fanfiction contest and if not, you should definitely check it out!
Also, have you seen the guild thread? :O If not, you should totally go party it up, yo. Our thread hosts are doing a freaking AMAZING job all up in there.
And finally, I have a few questions for you! These are totally optional, so feel free to either PM me or quote me in the Chatter, Chatter thread if you wanna answer them.
How often do you pay attention to the newsletters? What is your favourite part? As in, the part you find most useful. (Since we all know everyone's favourite part is what the hell I get up to, of course.) And finally, how would you feel about a video newsletter? Or otherwise a "townhall"-esque meeting?

March Newsletter:
Guys! It's March 15! I wish I was writing this from my new laptop (his name is Caesar) because I could make Ides of March jokes. Regardless, it's time for the new guild newsletter!
There weren't any birthdays on the calendar for March, but we have two for April before the fifteenth, when the next newsletter comes out! The thirteenth marks the birthday of the writer for ArronTheLythcolMechanic and the fifteenth itself sets the day for selenia50150! What could be a better present than a newsletter? biggrin ... Probably anything else, woops.
Also, this guild is officially two years old! It was formed March 15, 2012. >U< Fun fact. Also the guild newsletter is now a year old!
It literally took me WAY TOO LONG to get this avatar to play nice because of the animation omg. Regardless, this month goes to TheOneHidingBehindAMask!
Anyway, TOHBAM (that is a long name okay) anoned all the people who got correct answers in the 221 Trivia Contest towards the end of last month. Which is REALLY impressive, and their work is freaking fantastic on its own so there is just no losing there. BD
I'm going to plug some awesome guild threads now! St. Patrick's TekTek thread! Create an avatar for someone else or offer up your inventory for someone else to tektek! :3
Not to mention, I totally saw a new thread lurking about. Musically inspired? Get feels from music? Musical Notes is the place to be!

April 2014 Newsletter:
It's April 15th! You know what that means! It's time for a new newsletter! As we mentioned in the last newsletter, ArronTheLytholMechanic's writer celebrated a birthday on the thirteenth, and apparently Selenia50150 is special because an entire newsletter on your birthday is the BEST gift amirite? Okay, okay, kidding, but today is Selenia50150's birthday!
April birthdays for the rest of the month are as follows: the Eighteenth: The Wandering Sword, the Twenty-first: Dandelionblood, and the Twenty-seventh: I Kaede I
Surprisingly, all the birthdays for May are all before the next newsletter! That makes things easy! The birthdays for May are as follows!
The Rose Prince is out of retirement, did you hear~? ;D As such, he's going to be up for the Member of the Month this lovely April. I'm sure I don't need to tell you how great he is. ;3
I'm going to plug some awesome guild threads now!
Don't have your outfit for Easter yet? Check out Easter's TekTek thread! Create an avatar for someone else or offer up your inventory for another guildie to tektek! :3

Gypsy has been in the guild for a long time now, and has always managed to be pleasant. Furthermore, she even helped run the Guild Christmas Thread when our lovely moderator, Minty Andee, was out of commission. She's such a valued member of the community that her ribbons, a signature item, are in the guild treasure chest.
She's going to murder me.
